<heading id="h0001">BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION</heading>
<heading id="h0002"><u>Field of the Invention</u></heading>
<p id="p0001" num="0001">This invention relates to projection and display technologies, and in particular, it relates to light source systems and projection systems.</p>
<heading id="h0003"><u>Description of Related Art</u></heading>
<p id="p0002" num="0002">Conventional laser light source systems usually employ a laser light source to emit an excitation light, and use the excitation light to excite a phosphor material to generate a converted light. The color of the converted light is determined by the color characteristics of the phosphor material. For example, a red phosphor material can be excited to generate a red converted light, a yellow phosphor material can be excited to generate a yellow converted light, etc.</p>
<p id="p0003" num="0003"><patcit id="pcit0001" dnum="US2012147331A1"><text>US 2012/147331 A1</text></patcit>, <patcit id="pcit0002" dnum="CN103529631A"><text>CN 103 529 631 A</text></patcit>, and CN 10$ 020 633 A are relevant prior art.</p>
<heading id="h0004">SUMMARY</heading>
<p id="p0004" num="0004">However, due to inherent limitations of phosphor materials, the efficiency of generating a red converted light upon excitation is relatively low, so the amount of red light generated by wavelength conversion is low, and the color coordinates of the red converted light are also less than ideal, and the brightness is low. To achieve desired color gamut requirements, the red converted light needs to be color-corrected significantly, which further lowers the efficiency of red light generation of the light source system. The other color lights (e.g., blue and green lights) generated by the light source system may be oversupplied, and the excessive amounts of the other color lights need to be filtered out, which lowers the effective utilization rate of the other color lights. Thus, the low efficiency of the red converted light generation by the red phosphor material and its non-ideal color coordinates cause lower light output efficiency of the entire light source system.</p>
<p id="p0005" num="0005">Accordingly, the present invention is directed to a light source system and projection system that substantially solves the above problems of the conventional<!-- EPO <DP n="2"> --> technologies, i.e. low efficiency in red light generation and non-ideal color coordinates.

<p id="p0018" num="0018">Refer to <figref idref="f0001">Fig. 1</figref>, which schematically illustrates the structure of a light source system according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in <figref idref="f0001">Fig. 1</figref>, in this embodiment, the light source system includes a first laser array 10, a second laser array 20, a first light collecting device 30, a light homogenizing device 40, a light relay device 50, a beam splitting plate 60, a second light collecting device 701, a third light collecting device 702, a wavelength conversion device 80, and a light scattering device 90.</p>
<p id="p0019" num="0019">The first laser array 10 generates a red laser light. The second laser array 20 generates a blue laser light. The red laser light generated by the first laser array 10 and the blue laser light generated by the second laser array 20 are condensed by the first light collecting device 30, and the condensed red laser light and blue laser light are input into the light homogenizing device 40. The light homogenizing device 40 homogenizes the input red laser light and blue laser light, and the homogenized red laser light and blue laser light are output to the light relay device 50 and then to the beam splitting plate 60. In one embodiment, the light relay device 50 may include a lens or other devices having light condensing functions.<!-- EPO <DP n="7"> --></p>

The beam splitting plate 60 also directs at least a part of the blue laser light generated by the second laser array 20 to the light scattering device 90.</p>
<p id="p0021" num="0021">The wavelength conversion device 80 includes wavelength conversion materials, which receive the blue laser light and convert it to converted lights. The wavelength conversion device 80 further receives and scatters the red laser light to form a first red light.</p>

The beam splitting plate 60 further directs at least a part of the converted light and at least a part of the first red light from the wavelength conversion device 80, and at least a part of the blue light from the light scattering device 90, to a common light output path, so the converted light, the first red light and the blue light are combined into one beam which is output from the light output path.</p>
<p id="p0024" num="0024">In one embodiment, the wavelength conversion materials include a yellow phosphor material. The blue excitation light excites the yellow phosphor material to generate a yellow converted light. Thus, the light source system can ultimately generate a white combined light.</p>
<p id="p0025" num="0025">In the above described light source system and projection system, by using the first laser array that generates a red laser light, the red laser light is scattered by the wavelength conversion device to form the first red light, and the first red light is combined into the combined output light. This can not only increase the light source system's efficiency in red light generation, but also use the first red light to effectuate a color correction of the red light so that the red component in the combined light has desired color coordinates.</p>
<p id="p0026" num="0026">In one embodiment, the light source system further includes a third laser array (not shown in <figref idref="f0001">Fig. 1</figref>), for generating another blue laser light that is closer to a standard blue color than the blue laser light generated by the second laser array 20. The standard blue<!-- EPO <DP n="8"> --> color obeys the standard set by the CIE (Commission Internationale de L'Eclairage), and can be regarded as a standard blue color under the CIE standard.</p>

<p id="p0031" num="0031">In the above described light source system, by using a blue laser light that has a higher phosphor excitation efficiency to excite the phosphor material, a higher amount of converted light of the desired color can be obtained. Further, the combined light includes another blue light that is closer to the standard blue color, which effectuates a color correction for the blue light having higher phosphor excitation efficiency in the combined light.</p>
